Stainless Steel Alloy 465-H1025 vs Alloy 465-H1100
Stainless Steel · Alloy 465 temper comparison
Alloy 465-H1025 and Alloy 465-H1100 are two conditions of the same stainless steel grade, Alloy 465: H1025 (aged 552 °C (1025 °F) for 4 h) versus H1100 (aged 593 °C (1100 °F) for 4 h). The chemistry is identical, so every difference below comes from the condition. Alloy 465-H1025 is the stronger of the two: yield strength 1,480 MPa (215 ksi) against 1,210 MPa (175 ksi) for Alloy 465-H1100, about 22% more; tensile strength follows at 1,550 MPa (225 ksi) vs 1,300 MPa (189 ksi). In exchange, Alloy 465-H1100 is the more ductile: elongation 17% versus 15% for Alloy 465-H1025, and Alloy 465-H1025 is harder (410 HB vs 360 HB).
Alloy 465-H1025Choose it when strength drives the design.
Alloy 465-H1100Choose it when the part is bent, formed or impact-loaded.
Alloy 465-H1025 vs Alloy 465-H1100: propertiesHow to read these bars
- One bar per material. A full bar is the highest value among all stainless steel grades in the FabDigit library; each bar is drawn as a share of that.
- The better value (by the usual engineering direction) is in bold. Rows with no direction — density, thermal conductivity — have no bold.
- Values are typical room-temperature figures for the condition named on each card.
- Confirm against the certified mill or resin datasheet before design release.

Alloy 465-H1025 vs Alloy 465-H1100 — frequently asked
Is Alloy 465-H1025 stronger than Alloy 465-H1100?
Yes. Alloy 465-H1025 has a typical yield strength of 1,480 MPa (215 ksi) against 1,210 MPa (175 ksi) for Alloy 465-H1100 — about 22% more. Tensile strength is 1,550 MPa (225 ksi) vs 1,300 MPa (189 ksi).
Which condition does FabDigit quote by default, H1025 or H1100?
H1000 is the default Alloy 465 condition in the FabDigit quote flow (neither H1025 nor H1100). The other condition is available on request or by drawing note — specify it in the material field or the part notes and the quote is priced for it.
Which is easier to machine, Alloy 465-H1025 or Alloy 465-H1100?
Alloy 465-H1100. Its machinability rates fair (36/100) against poor (30/100) for Alloy 465-H1025.
